Do you have a burning question you just have to ask our Medical Board Experts about hypertensive pregnancies? Please email your question to expert@preeclampsia.org Keep in mind, however, that we won't be able to answer every question and our docs can't offer medical advice and won't be able to comment on specific medical cases.

Psoriasis is never listed as a specific risk factor for preeclampsia, but wouldn't an elevated level of TNF-alpha predispose a pregnant woman to preeclampsia? Is psoriasis just another autoimmune disease or is it a particular worry in pregnancy (I've read that it's more *immune-mediated* than autoimmune)? Ideally would a woman with a history of PE and a history of psoriasis do anything in particular prior to conception?
